Elizabeth Warren is standing by her claim of Cherokee heritage even though there is no evidence to back up that claim, and plenty of evidence that it is not true.

On Morning Joe this morning she refused to back down even an inch. She also mocked the Boston Herald, which has discovered many of the facts showing that Warren has not been truthful in her story.

Scarborough dumbed down and mischaracterized Warren’s Cherokee scandal as being about “applications to law schools.”

Here are some of Warren’s statements:

“I think that people, actually most people were never very interested in it. We got the fact out there very early on it. This is how I grew up Joe, this is my family, I’m not backing off from my family…. The Boston Herald is The Boston Herald, what can I say … It has its own point of view and it’s going to drive its own point of view…

It dominates only because she hijacked a race to advance her career. If she had checked off “White” she wouldn’t have gotten a job at Harvard. She is no better than those two race hustlers Rev. Jackson and Rev. Sharpton.

This episode is a perfect example of why Warren is completely unsuited to be a US Senator. When presented with evidence that her claim was false, she fails to accept the new information, and instead she double-downs on her false claim. Why anyone would want such a person serving as their representative in Government is beyond me.

Exactly. The continued stonewalling and abject refusal to even address factual evidence that contradicts her claim of family history is going to be her undoing. Her family history is irrelevant. The stories her family told back in teh day don’t matter to anyone with half a brain. That is not the basis for determining someone is a “minority”, and I think a sizable majority of people even in Massachusetts see it that way. There are certainly a number of liberals that will see past that and vote for her anyway, but I think she is in big trouble if she keeps on with this string of denials.

Once again, I am stunned at the left’s lack of interest in what is a critically important character issue. If Elizabeth Warren was willing to lie about her ethnic background, cheat multiple affirmative action programs, and steal a job at Harvard from someone who was really a discriminated-against minority….that means she is willing to do anything to advance herself and her career. Lies mean nothing to her.

The way that the interviewer gets away with it is by totally mis-characterizing the situation was and the facts of her behavior, and then dismissing it all as no big deal. More and more doublespeak….when what people deserve is the truth.

Is it possible for Elizabeth Warren to make it through the next 4 1/2 months without ever being interviewed by someone who is objective and fact-oriented?

Likewise, my jack russell pound puppy is declaring himself an italian greyhound. He does have pretty long legs, and who are we to question what his mother may or may not have told him? Keep an eye out for us at Westminster next year!

“It’s funny, when you’re running for elective office, especially high elective office, you really — you have to pass a test. And the test is about truthfulness, credibility and honesty,” Brown said on “Fox & Friends.” “And quite frankly, she’s failed that test as evidenced by her claiming to be a Native American and checking the box and making misrepresentations to not only Harvard but Penn.”

The first-term senator added, “It’s no different here. She can rewrite her own history but she can’t rewrite mine.”

1. Palin’s and Warren’s manners of speaking are similar (though Palin’s voice is higher). Both drop g’s and stress vowels. Not surprising since they were both born in the West.

But the MSM derides Palin and worships Warren. I guess the incandescence of Warren’s intellect blinds the MSM to her accent. What else could the reason be? 😉

2. I applaud how Bill, Anne, and others are exposing Warren’s character. Bravo. Keep it up.

But I caution, again, that character is a secondary issue to MA voters. So what if I’m a warped dishonest creep? I’ll be a warped dishonest creep on your behalf. During modern times the electorate of “enlightened” Massachusetts has repeatedly and routinely bought this line.

3. In a squeaker MA election, Warren should get the benefit of the doubt, for reasons both legitimate and illegitimate. And it’s supposedly a rule of thumb that voters who haven’t decided by Election Day usually break against the incumbent.

4. My point is not to deprecate the exposure of Warren’s character. On the contrary, I hope that a lot more evidence comes out. However, I’ve used the term necessary but insufficient. For the race to tilt decisively against Warren, MA independent voters must be persuaded that Warren will make them worse off if she gets into the Senate. The point, I suppose, is to discredit Warren’s professed noble intentions by exposing what the actual effects of her policies will be.

3. In a squeaker MA election, Warren should get the benefit of the doubt, for reasons both legitimate and illegitimate. And it’s supposedly a rule of thumb that voters who haven’t decided by Election Day usually break against the incumbent.

Not true at all. The exact OPPOSITE is usually true. On election day, about 2/3 of undecideds break FOR the incumbent.

I blame Warren for her lies, but do not blame her for sticking by them. Once she was outed for falsifying her heritage she had two choices, (1)cop to the lie, try to explain it, and suffer the consequences, or (b) quadruple down on her lies and damn the torpedoes. I’d say the latter is minutely more survivable than the latter, but either option was likely to cost her the election.

-Warren is from Oklahoma
-Oklahoma was settled to a large degree by northern
Europeans
-Northern Europeans are known for high cheekbones (too)
-Warren’s physical features are textbook northern European
-Hence, Warren is… Cherokee?

I’m not sure where you get your demographics, but Oklahoma was settled by a lot of folks that had missed out on the cheap or free land elsewhere. This included a former sharecroppers from down south, poor people, especially from Missouri and Tennessee, freed slaves, mixed-blooded people called ‘half-breed’ elsewhere and a lot of people generally down on their luck.

My own grandfather crossed the Red River with his dirt-poor family in the winter of 1895-96 at the age of 4 to become one of the real Sooners, eventually settling in a dug-out house on unclaimed ground near what became Healdon.

During all my time in Oklahoma, I’ve never noticed a significant number of Swedes, Finns, ‘Weegies or Danes. The Germans, mostly in south Oklahoma, migrated up from Texas. I’d suggest that Oklahoma is probably much more of a melting pot than any other state in the west.

I’d also suggest that Ms. Warren’s high cheekbones could be Irish, Nordic or maybe even Indian. It’s irrelevant. Cheekbones don’t mean diddly-squat to Indian ancestry. If they did, I’d at least be gettin’ me some ‘a that Casino money somewhere! 😉

“Elizabeth Warren! I’ve known Indians all my life and you madam, are no Indian!”
